This is what the Libs.private field is for (see the pkg-config man page).  E.g.

$ pkg-config --libs libavdevice
-lavdevice
$ pkg-config --libs --static libavdevice
-pthread -lavdevice -lavformat -lavcodec -ldl -lX11 -lXext -lXfixes
-lasound -lxvidcore -lx264 -lvpx -lvorbisenc -lvorbis -ltheoraenc
-ltheoradec -logg -lschroedinger-1.0 -lpthread -lorc-0.4 -lopenjpeg
-lopencore-amrwb -lopencore-amrnb -lmp3lame -lfaac -lva -lm -lbz2 -lz
-lavcore -lavutil
